I kept hearing how very much the kids at our school loved playing Guitar Hero. Now I know why. One thing I don't like is the graphic representations of pentagrams anarchy symbols that are symbolic in a lot of rock and roll, but are not necessary for the game. Great price...shipping was slow which is not my customary experience with Overstock.com

Have had a blast with this it is very addicting once you get started, I wish the Guitar was just a bit bigger. I think the disk should be sold seperate because we already had to buy a new one, and we had to buy the whole set up, but now we can play two at the same time

My son loves this item and will not stop playing it. (I am not sure if that is good or bad...as long as he does his homework first!) Great product, good finger coordination, good rock & roll songs from "our" generation. Overstock delivered it very quickly. Very happy and satisfied with product and Overstock.

I'm completely new to the Guitar Hero franchise, and having played the guitar for 15+ years, naturally I was a bit skeptical.
Guitar Hero II is a great game.
Pros:
-Very funny "in-jokes" for fans of rock music; hilarious charicatures of music stereotypes, ie: punk rocker, metal thrasher, gothic rocker
-Excellent interface; easy to navigate menus
-Various difficulty levels which greatly add to replay value
-Song selection has some great riff-based songs: "killing in the name of", "last child", "Strutter", "shout at the devil", which are TONS of fun to play.
-Song selection gets more challenging and exposes you to a few rock songs from bands you might already know, which you may not have heard before.
-downloadable content will extend replay value
Cons:
-The song selection, particularly towards the end, tends to lean towards a newer style of heavy-metal (ie: Lamb of G-d) which I don't find particularly interesting from a technical perspective, nor enjoyable to listen to. If we're talking
